Send me feedback! I don't care if it's flames or good feedback... flames will be used to warm up my VERY cold hands on this VERY FOGGY night.... and I'll marvel in the good feedback :) On another note...

So Scully is 17 and Mulder is 18 and it's now the year 2000 for them. As I said it's an Alternate Universe. \ Roy High School Roy, Utah January 4, 2000 10:13 a.m. I'm sitting here in English waiting patiently for class to end. I'm DYING to finally face my fears and say hi to the new guy in my class. I've seen him around school before. Actually, I've known him since my sophomore year when I first moved here to this school. I've never had any classes with him until now. He just transferred in from Mr. Hanson's class. I can only guess why. Mr. Hanson is quite the jerk. He once taught my aunt when my aunt went to this school in 1991. He failed her on her essay because she used two different typewriters no it. I like Miss Olson. She's the best teacher I could possibly have. In exception for my choir teacher, Mrs. Robinson. She's pretty awesome. I look at my watch. Only 5 minutes have passed since I last looked. Thirty-two minutes and counting until the bell rings and I can go to lunch. I glance over at the guy. He's so incredibly handsome. According to his introduction at the begining of class his name is Fox Mulder. Strange name, I know, but he's the cutest guy I've EVER seen. I'm not one to like a guy for his looks, but there's something about his eyes. A kindness in them that I've never seen before. Sure, I've seen kindness in other guy's eyes, but never like what I seen in his eyes. His eyes are a very nice shade of hazel. They look almost green and they have a mischievious look about them. A look that tells me he likes to have fun. Like looking for UFOs or unexplained phenomena. Personally, I don't believe in any of that mumbo-jumbo, but who knows...... maybe it'll be interesting to meet a guy who's really into that stuff. His hair is a dark brown and is kinda long. Not really, but I mean it hangs in his eyes in this one spot on one side of his face. It's so incredibly sexy. His hair looks so soft. I'd love to be able to run my hand through it. I don't know how long I've been staring at him, but obviously he's noticed because he's looking back at me with the sexiest smile I've ever seen. I bite my lip and turn my attention back to the teacher. I know I'm blushing. I can feel the heat rising in my cheeks. I try to focus again on what Miss Olson is saying. She's telling us about the requirements for our newly assigned research project. I'm doing mine on abortion rights. It seemed to be the most interesting topic out of the choices the teacher gave us. I look at my watch again. Only twenty-five more minutes. When I glance back in the direction of the mysterious guy I notice he's still looking at me. He kind of raises his eyebrow at me in a suggestive way and I can't help but smile. I am about to laugh out loud but I stop myself. Not wanting to get in trouble. I look down at the folder in front of me. It's my green one that says "English" on it. I pick up my purple pen and doodle on my folder. After what seems like an eternity I finally hear the bell ring. I put my pen in my pocket and stand up, grabbing my folder and walk towards the door. Before I can walk out the door I feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn around. It's him. And he's smiling. "Hi." he says to me. Unable to speak for a minute because I'm awestruck I just look at him with a bemused smile. Finally I manage to say, "Hi." "I've seen you around in the halls, but I never had a reason to approach you. But now that we have a class together...." he doesn't finish his sentence. I smile. "I've seen you too. Your name is Fox Mulder, right?" "Yeah." "I like your name. It's different. You don't have to worry about people having the same name as you." He makes a face that tells me he doesn't like his name. "Actually, my friends call me Mulder..." "By your last name? Why?" "Because when people call me by my first name they're usually doing it to bug me or to taunt me because it's such a corny name." Actually.... his name fits him really well. Fox. He *is* a fox. "Well, I wouldn't use it to taunt you or bug you. I think it's a very nice name." I smile at him. "Thanks. What's your name?" "Oh... um.... Dana." "Dana?" "Yeah." "Dana what?" "Scully." "Like that baseball broadcaster? Vin Scully? That's pretty cool." "Thanks." He motions towards the door. "How about we go grab a bite to eat...." I nod and walk out the door and he follows me. I look at him. "Can I take my books to my locker first?" "Sure..." After going to my locker and putting away my books I look at him and smile and walk towards the cafeteria. I guess that halfway to the cafeteria he realized where I was headed and stopped me. "You know what? Why don't we go to McDonalds or something? I don't really like the school's food." "That would be nice, but I don't have any money. Pay day is next week." I shove my hands in my pockets. "That's okay, my treat." He smiles at me. My God, his smile is so sexy. It's enough to melt your heart. "We'll take my car." His car is a beauty! It's one of the new BMWs and it's forest green. Geez, my car is just a little blue Honda Accord. He opens the door for me and I get in and do up my seat belt. After he gets in and does up his, he starts the car and drives us to McDonalds. We ride in silence. Neither one of us able to find anything to talk about. ------------------------------------------------------------- After lunch we are sitting in our booth talking about how much our school's football team sucked this year. I normally don't like to talk about sports, but I find myself enjoying this conversation. I also learned that he *does* believe in aliens and UFOs and spends almost every night looking through his telescope in his bedroom. He told me that when he was twelve his eight-year-old sister Samantha was abducted by aliens. Of course, I don't believe this. She was probably just kidnapped, but I listened to his story anyway. And what a fascinating story it was. On the way back to school he asked me if I wanted to go to see a movie with him on Friday. I agree to go with him. ------------------------------------------------------------ I just got home from school I work on my homework for a little while. Getting bored with my history homework I decide to go online for a little while to see if I got any mail. I move from my bed over to my computer, which sat in the far corner of my bedroom. I flip the switch and wait for Windows 98 to load. After Windows finished loading I click on the AOL icon and type in my password. After waiting for my computer to dial up and sign on I hear the delightful sound, "You've got mail" and smile. I click on my mailbox. The first e-mail was from my friend Becky. She is asking me if I wanted to go with her and Shaylawnee ice skating on Friday. I e-mail her back telling her that I had a date that night and couldn't go. Shortly after sending the mail my instant message sound chimes and I have a message from Enticing33 who just happens to be Becky. I read the message. Enticing33: Who's the date with, Dana? I smile and message her back. DKS17: A guy. Enticing33: I kinda figured THAT much, Dana. But what's his name? It's not John Huckle is it? DKS17: Ewwww you've GOT to be kidding! He sits in front of me in English and does NOTHING but annoy me! Enticing33: Yeah, but you used to think he was cute. Remember when you told me you wanted to date him? DKS17: Yeah, but a girl can change her mind. Enticing33: sureeeee. So.... who's the guy? DKS17: Fox Mulder Enticing33: you mean that kid that just transferred into our English class? DKS17: that's him Enticing33: ooooooooo how did this come about? DKS17: He stopped me after class, we talked for a minute, and he invited me to lunch. Enticing33: Where'd you guys go? DKS17: McDonalds. He asked me to go to the movies with him on Friday when we were on our way back to school. Enticing33: ohhhhhh.... well have fun! DKS17: Thanks, I will Enticing33: shoot, mom's calling me for dinner. Sorry, Dana I'll see you at school tomorrow. DKS17: Okay... bye Becky I click cancel on the instant message and go back to reading my e-mail. The next one was from my dad. He left to go to sea three days after Christmas. He e-mailed me to tell me he loved me and misses me. I e-mail him back and tell him I miss him and love him too. I was about to click send when I suddenly got an instant message. I don't recognize this screen name. DrkAngel: Hi, sexy DKS17: Do I know you? DrkAngel: Of course you do. DKS17: well, it would help if you gave me your name. DrkAngel: It's only me, Josh. Remember me? Your boyfriend? I sigh and reply. DKS17: Josh, you and I are OVER remember? I told you to leave me alone and I meant it DrkAngel: I don't care what you said, Dana. Your parents aren't home are they? Neither are your brothers. I'm watching you Dana. DKS17: yes... my father's at sea.... DrkAngel: and your mother is at work. she works graves. your sister is babysitting for the neighbors. Bill is out with his buddies, and Charlie is at football practice. His exactness in knowing where everyone is scares me. DKS17: Josh, leave me alone. DrkAngel: I'm coming over DKS17: No, Josh, you're not But my message doesn't get through... he has signed off. I sigh and click cancel on the instant message. I finally click send on the e-mail to my father. The rest of my mail is that stupid porno e-mail that always gets sent out. God, it's so annoying. I look at my buddy list. None of my other friends are online. I'm about to click "sign off" when a hand clamps over my mouth. I try to scream but I can't. "You're a little bitch." I hear Josh whisper in my ear. "I'm going to make you pay for thinking you can break up with me." He tosses me on my bed and climbs on and straddles me. I trash wildly, trying to get him off of me. Suddenly he takes a bandanna and gags me. His father is a cop and I realize he's stolen his father's handcuffs. Josh cuffs me to my own bed. He rips my shirt open. This is my favorite shirt! But that doesn't matter now, because Josh is about to rape me. I kick my legs wildly and he smacks me across the face. "If you don't hold still I'm going to hurt you." He growls. Suddenly I hear the doorbell ring. Josh freezes, but after a moment resumes to his task at trying to get my pants off me. I am able to spit the gag out of my mouth and I scream. Josh tries to cover my mouth and I bite his hand. He pulls it back and cries out in pain. I yell "HELP ME!!! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!" Evidently, the person at the door heard me because just then I hear the front door open. "Please! Help me!" Josh smacks me HARD across the face. I taste blood in my mouth. I look at the doorway to see Fox standing there. He looks at Josh with an outraged look and in three big strides he's next to my bed and grabs Josh around the neck. He's quite a bit bigger than Josh, I realize. I notice that the handcuff key is on a chain around his neck. "Fox, the key to the handcuffs is on his neck." I manage to say, but my speech is a little slured. Fox hears me and yanks the key off Josh's neck. Still holding onto Josh he uncuffs me and takes the cuffs. He puts one cuff on Josh's right wrist and cuffs him to my bedroom doorknob. I sit up slowly, and rub my wrists. Realizing my shirt is open I pull my shirt closed and hold my arms around myself. Fox picks up my phone from the bed stand and calls 911. ------------------------------------------------------------- It's about an hour after the cops came and got Josh. I'm sitting on my bed in my bathrobe. Fox is sitting next to me. He said he'd stay with me until my mom came home. I look at him. "How'd you know where I live?" "I looked you up in the school rap book. You left this in my car." He holds up my cross necklace. I put my hand to my throat and it's not there. "It must have fallen off." He reaches around my neck and puts it back on me. "Thank you.... for bringing this back to me, and for stopping Josh..." "What was that all about anyway?" "Josh.... he used to be my boyfriend, but I broke up with him a few months ago because he started to get abusive..." "And you never told your parents?" I shake my head. "I was afraid to." He nods slightly and touches my arm. I jerk away slightly. He pulls his and away. "I won't hurt you..." "I know... I guess I'm just a little shaken up still." "I can understand that." "I'm so glad you came by." He smiles at me. "So am I." My mom suddenly pokes her head in my room. "Hi sweet...." she cuts off as she sees Fox. "Hi." She's looking at Fox. "Hi. You must be Mrs. Scully." "That's right.... and you are...?" "I'm Fox Mulder... I promised Dana I'd stay here until you got home. I came over to return her necklace that fell off in my car... and this guy Josh was trying to rape your daughter." My mom suddenly has a horrified look on her face as she looks at me. She rushes over to me. "Dana? Are you alright?" She pulls me into a tight hug. "Yeah. I'm all right mom." I hug her back. My mom lets go of me and looks at Fox. "Thank you." He smiles. "It wasn't a problem. I'm just glad she's all right." -------------------------------------------------------------- Fox and I went to that movie on Friday. We saw "Toy Story 2." That was such a cute movie. Fox was such a gentleman. He didn't try any moves on me. Unlike Josh. He would do nothing but try to touch me in the theaters. But Fox kept his hands to himself. Right now we're on the way home from the movie. I glance over at him. "Thank you," I say softly. He glances at me for a brief moment before looking back at the road. "For what?" "For the movie. I had fun." He smiles. "It was no problem at all. I hope we can do it again sometime." Now it's my turn to smile. "I'd love that." We pull up in front of my house. He's the kind of guy who insists that you stay in the car until he comes over and opens your door. So, I wait in the car as he gets out and comes over to open my door. He politely holds out a hand to me and helps me out of the car. We walk up to my front porch and I turn to look at him and smile. "I really had a nice time. Thank you." He nods with a smile. "Your welcome. I had fun, too." It's at this moment I decide to kiss him. I stand on tippie toe and place a kiss on his lips. He kisses me back. I can tell he was shocked at first, but now he's okay with it. I silently ask for him to deepen the kiss by opening my mouth slightly. He kisses me like I've never been kissed before. And I enjoy it. --End-- PLEASE send comments!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE them! :) I'll eat them for a snack. hehehe
